What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful thing about lucidspark is that it provides variety of tools, which are very essinsitial. In addition, it enhances the user experience. Moreover, I like how it allows other group members to join the lucidspark. In addiiton, it allows them all to work on same diagram from sitting at different locations. In my opinion, it is a very good platform and i would recommend it to my other freind and collegues, so they can work effectively on thier upcoming projects in future. Overall, it is a great platform to be used. I very much liked how it allows the user to add multiple users to a single project and allow them to work conjuctionally. In addiiotion, i also liked how lucodpark allows the user to use variety of tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my opinion, overall it is a great platform to be used. However, with pros, their are always the cons. Therefore, this platform has some downside as well. However, i would say that these are not any major issues, as they could be worked out easily. I would say the structure of the platform was bit distrubed. This is the only thing i didn't like. Overall it is a great one to be used. The one listed above can be very easily fixed. In my opinion the designers should come up with an enhanced structre, like a welcoming one for their customers. In addiiton, they could add tutorials, like where each of the tools is loctaed. This would be very helpful for the new users joining the platform. In the end i would like to outline that it is a great platform and please join it and get your best experience for developing new skills. Thanks again. I dislikes how the structe is bit messy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have have seen variety of problem creating my UCD in Microsoft Visio, Cretively. I did use thgese platforms as well but lucidpark was way better than these platforms. As it provides multifunction tools, which are way better than others. Moreover, I would like to add much more stuff to it. There are more benifits of lucidpark, as it allows the multiuser system, which is the onemost benifit of usingit that you can literally do anything. It allows me to solve many problems
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend lucidspark to my very other freind and ask them to join it, as it is a very useful platform and ask them to enhance their experience.
I would say that if you looking from a platform, join lucidspark

The use of a white board and post it notes. Also like the ability for colleagues to all interact together.

Amazing Tool for constructive collaboration

  • March 23, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Using Lucid for many years now. It has been an amazing tool to create and share diagrams, be it mind map, architecture diagram, flow diagram.. Very easy and intuitive to use. I was able to create an entire presentation with various features effectively in Lucid charts. The tool is amazing for all kinds of diagrams with relations and clickable.

It's very easy to start and within no time, you'll have a meaningful diagram ready to share. It saves a lot of time and easy to learn.

It's reasonably priced.
What do you dislike about the product?
A desktop application could be useful sometimes. And also the android user interface could be improved. Sometimes it's a bit difficult to explore in android platform. It's a bet slow and not very intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating Architecture diagrams, Flow diagrams, Class diagram etc. It was very easy to create in minutes and easily shareable across teams. That is a great feature you don't need a desktop software installation.

The flexibility of the Lucid charts help us to convey others what we have in mind in an effective manner.

One main advantage I saw with Lucid Charts is the option for collaborative edit. I can invite others to a created documents, and decide what kind of access I share with each of them be it edit permission, or read only permission.

Another great feature is the integration with external services such as GitHub, Jira etc which is very useful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a one stop solution for diagramming. Go for it.

Lucid Spark Has Given Me Space To Think - I'm More Productive Now

  • March 23, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Everything from the design to the UI is polished. It is most similar to the benefits of a real life whiteboard out of any tool that I have used.

I love that you have this infinite wide canvas to map out your ideas, they have a robust text editor and their actual linking of ideas just looks & feels great!

Unlike other solutions, they've actually taken the time to make their product intuitive. They also have a handy search function which lets you find any information you've put down.

The fact that I can zoom in and out to see a broad overview.

I love that I can select anything, crtl c and ctrl v to duplicate it. Such a time saver!!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that they had a scroll bar on the text boxes to prevent it from going off the actual shape while still remaining the same size.

I prefer using it as more an idea brainstorming place.

I also think it would be cool if it could somehow auto arrange my work around the main circle in a way that looked clean and spaced out with the click of a button.

I wish that they had the ability to add commonly used shapes, like an amateurish drawn circle because it's difficult to draw with the pen tool unless you have a touchscreen.

Also there is no way to jump focus by pressing tab, that would be cool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been able to map out my goals and everything that has been in my head, it's allowed me to visualize and draw it all out.

I have also used it to map out funnels for my clients.

Wonders of the Spark

  • March 23, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I liked most is how organized the website is, it gives details and very easy to use and navigate all throughout. The lucidspark is also very efficient, time-saving, and work-friendly, overall everything went well and I loved how every tool has an accurate explanation and function for usage when trying to make projects that are new to me. Lastly, I loved how there are so many options to choose from when exporting the project, it can be many types of files and can even accommodate a higher resolution of pixels. One last thing, the website contains a lot of other tools that I can use to many different projects for collaboration as well. Overall I would rate it 10/10.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that I may not like is how it is kinda hard to export the file after finishing the project, though it is fine because with the right practice and knowledge I can still get through it. There is also one thing that I hated, there was a time when I was trying to find my history works and I spent a lot of time trying where to find it, turns out it was the folder icon. The folder Icon looked like useless at all because of where it was placed and no details when navigated using the cursor, so I got a bit frustrated there but somehow now it is all fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A lot of problems actually, one thing is when we make an Entity Relationship Diagram, we mostly use this because it is very easy to use and very efficient as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should really use this because as I said earlier, it's very efficient, time-friendly and the tools are very very easy to use.
